Oreo Ice Cream Cakes

You didn’t think that I would let America’s favorite cookie turn 100 without a little shout out from me, did you? Children and adults alike have been twisting, licking, and dunking since March 6th, 1912. As you know, Oreo has been celebrating with a special birthday cake flavored cookie. These cookies smell amazing when you open the pack; I could have opened it and closed it all day long but thankfully for everyone I was able to move on.

Can you even believe that I made my own ice cream? I mean, that is so empowering. It’s like eating a salad made from your own garden. Except a lot less healthy. And sadly, you can’t grow Oreos. Seriously though, homemade ice cream- you should try it sometime. I had seen recipes that you make without an ice cream-maker but I was a little hesitant. That is until I saw Shelly do it. The girl has never been wrong yet so I thought I would give it a try.

Oreo has been so good to you for 100 years. You owe it to those little cream filled wafers to celebrate this milestone. Make it today and eat it tonight!

Please trust me that you don’t need any special equipment besides your mixer. To make four mini ice cream cakes I used 6 inch springform pans. Feel free to just pour it into a plastic container and freeze if you don’t have mini springform pans. I am including the recipe here but I would encourage you to head over to Cookies and Cups to see Shelly’s tutorial. It has lots of pretty pictures for those of us who are visual like that. Bonus: learn how to make S’mores Ice Cream. Hello!?!

Ingredients:

2 Cups heavy whipping cream

1 (14oz) can sweetened condensed milk

10 Oreos, coarsely chopped

¼ Cup frosting (tinted blue if desired)

Directions:

In your mixer use the whisk attachment to whip the cream until stiff peaks form (2-3 minutes, maybe less depending on how powerful your mixer is). When you pull the whisk from the cream you don’t really want it oozing off.

You had me cracking up. I even had to read portions to hubs lol. I've been resisting the urge to buy these because they're not available in double stuffed – how dare they! but the image of you opening and closing the package a million times won me over lol
My recent post Blue Cheese Stuffed Buffalo Chicken Meatballs

I was at the store today and succumbed to the oreo siren song. My boys wanted the yellow ones, but I wanted the birthday cake variety. We got the yellow ones. Looks like I'm heading back to the store tomorrow . . . And I'm totally with you on the homemade ice cream, sooooo good!
My recent post Roasted Cauliflower and a spicy giveaway

I have got to try these birthday cake Oreos! I've had my eyes peeled but I haven't found them yet. These little cakes look perfect. Im in awe at your planning skills – I didn't even know it was Oreos big 100 until today.

I do love me some oreos (especially the ones that come out during holidays like the halloween orange ones or the red and green at Christmas) – it's amazing this cookie has been around 100 years… And your ice cream cake is adorable – it's like a giant oreo w/o the top 😉
My recent post Crostini with Roasted Root Vegetables

This is delicious – and was very simple to make. I made this with an oreo cookie crust in a 9" spring form pan – and added about 5 more oreos chopped up. The possibilities are unlimited with what you can do with this recipe – love it!
